I took them back off like. They were applying a tiny bit more pressure to the brakes than my oem ones and as you say that could have fairly catastrophic results. There was no free play in them whatsoever whereas standard you get a mm or two before any brake bite. These were just biting straight away.

+1 see the threads about £44 clutch and brake levers. I don't think there's a single complain, although someone will no doubt prove me wrong.

I sent jesters an email asking if any other fit with the clutch switch intact. Apparently pazzos do as long as you file a few mm of the mount!

Oem levers it is then

Which is ridiculous. The money you pay for Pazzos, you shouldn't have to file anything. In fact for that money, they ought to fit themselves. I've just bought from http://www.moto-777.com/newosc/ and they are spot on. I've just rechecked and they do them to fit current Hornets. Interesting they look (and I emphasise look because obviously, for the money they can't possibly be

) identical to the £120 a pair set of CRG Rollaclick levers featured in an article in Bike magazine this month (September issue, page 157, picture 6).

Don't, unless Honda OEM levers are made of tougher stuff than the cast muckite that Suzuki use for the SV.

Chinese ones. Had mine on the bike for 4000 miles now. Work well, look and feel good and the anodising is still intact. And you can adjust the span with gloved hands.

Might want to rephrase that, do you know how f*cking arrogant and racist that is?

I dont care if its in jest. Do it privately, not on a public forum.
